where is the best Girls Aloud thread? can't find any that have been updated in the last decade.

RIP ;_;

the girls aloud catalogue opens with sarah singing “disco dancing with the lights down low” and ends with her singing “i still think about you every now and then” to fade

With great sadness we announce that actor Tony Selby passed away peacefully in London yesterday. In a career spanning 70 years in theatre, film and TV, Tony was highly respected and loved by family, friends and colleagues. His renowned sense of humour will be missed by us all. pic.twitter.com/AJw9VU9SbI

That really wasn't a very long reprieve for Tony :(
(His death was widely reported in June, but it was a different Tony Selby).

That was best before, this was selby

fuck, no

Aw man. RIP MKW. Omar was an indelible performance, but he was good in other things too.

Belmondo was incredible. What a career.

― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Monday, 6 September 2021 21:27 (four years ago)

RIP to Belmondo who was great in a ton of movies, but should also be celebrated for the incredible posters of his cruddy 80s action movies. pic.twitter.com/18hAShiTgY

My first knowledge of Belmondo was the "Le Marginal" poster, hung on the wall of one of my french classes at school. I thought it was hilarious at the time, not knowing that a few years later I'd be loving his 60s movies.

― visiting, Monday, 6 September 2021 22:08 (four years ago)

Gotta say, Omar might be one of my favorite characters in all of television history. Very sad about MKW. RIP

― Kind regards, Anus (the table is the table), Monday, 6 September 2021 22:31 (four years ago)

Pretty much the perfect match of performer to role. But I liked seeing him pop up in other stuff, too. Lovecraft Country was a pretty bad show — it seems a little worse every time I think about it, honestly — but he was really good in it.

― but also fuck you (unperson), Monday, 6 September 2021 22:36 (four years ago)

Belmondo was the most beautiful ugly actor in cinema.

If you want a total change of pace, check out his Les Miserables directed by Claude Lelouch.

― So who you gonna call? The martini police (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 6 September 2021 22:40 (four years ago)

I remember being in France and seeing all kinds of other, unknown Belmondo videos on the shelf in the store, including one with a picture of a pie in midair on the way to his gueule, his chapeau already lifting a tiny bit off his head in anticipation.

That clip is truly insane

What is that from even?

― What Does Blecch Mean to Me? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 7 September 2021 17:10 (four years ago)

Isn't that the original ending of Pierrot le Fou?

― Halfway there but for you, Tuesday, 7 September 2021 17:11 (four years ago)

Ah, maybe. But the final ending was different, at least the last time I saw it.

― What Does Blecch Mean to Me? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 7 September 2021 17:16 (four years ago)

The big difference is that Godard had Belmondo paint his face blue.

― Halfway there but for you, Tuesday, 7 September 2021 18:03 (four years ago)

Yes, that part I remember.

Clip's from The Burglars (1971)
